Current phishing wave: Fraudulent e-mails are currently circulating in the name of TWINT requesting confirmation for a supposedly new device registration abroad. Please be careful – these are phishing attempts.

What is the difference between a basic QR code sticker and a QR code sticker with payment information?

Text fields

With QR code stickers with payment information, merchants can define specific text fields (such as the name and address of the customer or the payment purpose) for use in the payment process. In so doing, they can decide which fields are optional and which fields must be filled in by the buyer to complete the payment.

Amounts and notifications

QR code stickers with payment information are only available as QR code stickers with a freely selectable amount. Basic QR code stickers are also available for fixed amounts. Push notifications in the TWINT Business Portal app and e-mail notifications  for transactions will be offered for both solutions. All transactions can be viewed in the TWINT merchant portal and in the TWINT Business Portal app.

Fees

In addition to the payment fee, which is 1.3% of the transaction amount for the basic QR code sticker from TWINT AG, there is an additional charge of CHF 0.30 for each transaction made via QR code stickers with payment information for the optional notification fields.
